Non-Slip Bath Coating in Hornestreet
Non-slip bath coating across Hornestreet and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our non-slip bath coating in Hornestreet
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hornestreet and across Essex. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the area is dry
